Why we picked this for Middlesbrough vs Preston North End

Our pick for Middlesbrough vs Preston North End in Championship is Over 2.5 goals, with 91% confidence. Recent form: 3 of Middlesbrough's last 5 games went over 2.5 goals (3.4 goals per game in total), against 2 of 5 for Preston North End (1.6 per game). Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.
